This course will revisit the fundamental ideas of calculus of several
variables, at greater depth, and will make connections with other mathematical
areas as well as with problems in physics and engineering. The emphasis will be
on double and triple integrals, line and surface integrals and their
connections. The course will end with Green's Theorem, Stokes' Theorem, and
Gauss' Theorem.

We will cover chapters 5 through 8. Problems will be assigned in class
with periodic problem sets to be handed in. The problems chosen will generally
not be the simple calculations you were asked to do in MTH 243. There will also
be some problems to be solved using Mathematica.

The text has an on-line supplement that you can access via the following
link. There will be some readings assigned from the "Internet
Supplement."

The nation is experiencing a widespread influenza-like
illness. If any of us develop flu-like symptoms, we are being advised to stay
home until the fever has subsided for 24 hours. So, if you exhibit such
symptoms, please do not come to class. Notify me of your status, and we will
communicate through email, at Chris_Lynd@my.uri.edu. We will work together to
ensure that your questions regarding the material are answered and that you
have a proper amount of time to complete your assignments.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has
posted a few simple methods to reduce the transmission of the flu virus. These
include: covering your mouth and nose with a tissue when coughing or sneezing;
frequent washing or sanitizing of your hands; avoiding touching your eyes,
nose, and mouth; and staying home when you are sick. For more information
